    Was this the most brutal knockout ever?

    Limited to the bouts I have seen, yes.
    The documentary Ring of Fire is a must have DVD for those who follow the sport.

    Mercer/Morrison, Cooney/Norton are nasty as those are big guys getting free shots.

    Mercer/Jeff Pegues is rather frightening as Ray has a running start (sorry, no link that I could find).

    But Paret/Griffith, of course, has its own level.

    Griffith-Paret 3 is worse than some others because of what happened to Paret.

    If you just watched the stoppage and didn't know what happened afterwards to the fighter, you'd say Williams-Jack was worse.

    That was like Scorsese's version of Robinson-LaMotta 6.
